I have a new Southern Painted Turtle that is one inch that is in the second day in his tank. The treated water was 2 days old and is now cloudy in 1-1/2 days. The tank is 30 X 13 X 13 with 10 gallons of water or 8" in depth. The water is NOT super cloudy. Turtle waste would not be an issue as hatchling and two day old treated water. I used Zilla water Conditioner with 5ml to 5 gallons of water per instructions. Maybe use 10ml to 5 gallons to take care of the tap water chemicals? Or empty 50% of the water and add new treated city tape water?
There is only an artificial tall leafy plant in the tank with Fluval U2 30 gal filter, heater, a floating basking dock, heater, UVB and heat lamps. I am open to suggestions. I am new to this game and your suggestions are welcomed.
